First rental of this type of vehicle in a professional context where the rental must take place from France to Canada. Many questions and Cooldrive (Marlène) has been a valuable support in guiding my choices. Efficiency and responsiveness beforehand, and on-site a vehicle and service that met our expectations. No complaints. Great!
Brussels, the only departure city in Belgium
In Belgium, Autocaravan Express, a rental company whose main network is in Spain, offers only one city: Brussels. The address is not published; the rental company tells you when you book where to collect the vehicle, at its depot or at an agreed meeting point.
The country is compact, which makes up for the single departure point: Ghent, Bruges and Antwerp are about an hour away, the coast and the Ardennes around Dinant or Durbuy less than two hours, and the Netherlands, Luxembourg and northern France are close by. As no prices have yet been recorded for this departure, the search, with your dates, sets the amount.
Our view: a practical option for a short tour of Belgium or a departure towards the Benelux, provided you accept Brussels as your starting point. Anywhere Campers, which delivers its vehicles to several Belgian cities, is the other option to weigh up.

Our tips for booking with Autocaravan Express
-
Prepare for the low emission zone
The whole Brussels Region is a low emission zone, as are the centres of Antwerp and Ghent. Vehicles registered outside Belgium may need to be registered in advance: ask the rental company whether this has been done, and check each city’s official website before driving in.

Where to sleep between the coast and the Ardennes
On the coast, many municipalities restrict overnight motorhome parking: aim for the designated motorhome areas and campsites. In the Ardennes, the Meuse, Ourthe and Semois valleys have plenty of campsites, which are in high demand at summer weekends.

What does a departure from Brussels cost?
We have not yet recorded an Autocaravan Express price in Belgium. The price depends on your dates, the length of hire and the model: the search shows it, mandatory fees included, and lets you set it against Anywhere Campers offers for the same trip.

Very good customer experience with Cooldrive. I highly recommend it! Thanks to the team who were attentive and available for organizing my trip to Canada.
FAQ — Autocaravan Express motorhome hire in Belgium
Are Belgian motorways tolled?
No, they are free for cars and leisure motorhomes. Only the Liefkenshoek tunnel, in Antwerp, is tolled. If you carry on into France, however, allow for French motorway tolls.
Can you drive in the Netherlands, Luxembourg or France?
These countries are one or two hours from Brussels, but whether you may visit them depends on the Autocaravan Express contract: the list is given in the offer. In France, also look into the Crit'Air sticker if you drive through a large city.
